There have recently been rapid developments in smart healthcare systems, such as precision diagnosis, smart diet management, and drug discovery. These systems require the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) for data acquisition, Digital Twins (DT) for data representation into a digital replica and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for decision-making. DT is a digital copy or replica of physical entities (e.

We present an end-to-end architecture for embodied exploration inspired by two biological computations: predictive coding and uncertainty minimization. The architecture can be applied to any exploration setting in a task-independent and intrinsically driven manner. We first demonstrate our approach in a maze navigation task and show that it can discover the underlying transition distributions and spatial features of the environment.
